Save $202 on Sony’s HT-A3000 3.1-Ch. Dolby Atmos Soundbar in return to $498 low

Amazon is currently offering the latest Sony HT-A3000 3.1-Channel Dolby Atmos Soundbar for $498 shipped. Launching back in August 2022 for $700, this solid 29% price drop, or $202 price drop, marks a return to the all-time low price we’ve tracked. This is only the third time we’ve seen this soundbar marked down this low. Arriving with a built-in Chromecast and AirPlay 2 support, the HT-A3000 soundbar uses three front speakers and a dual subwoofer to provide clear dialogue while also having punchy bass. Dolby Atmos support is achieved by this soundbar using Sony’s Vertical Sound Engine and S-Force PRO technology to create virtual height channels and “wrapping” audio around your room for virtual surround sound. Users with Sony BRAVIA TVs will have the advantage of an integrated UI on the TV for sound controls. Check out our launch coverage to learn more and keep reading below.

While this soundbar can simulate a surround sound setup, there is no substitute for the real thing. Here you can take your savings from the soundbar and build up some more cash to grab the Sony SA-RS3S Wireless Rear Speakers for $298. These speakers will pair wirelessly with the HT-A3000 soundbar to provide actual rear channel audio to further enhance your movie-watching experience. Both speakers here use 100W of power to enhance sound and can be wall mounted for a cleaner look.
